Mounting saw to Kreg Rip Cut jig
Having problems as my saw doesn't have holes required to mount it to the jig. I have a Contractor Skilsaw HD 5687. There is only one hole and it is to far away to use it. Any ideas?
Thanks
Teresa

Teresa, no problem here. The machine-screws on the Rip-Cut aren't actually designed to thread into the holes on your saw. Rather, they simply apply downward pressure to your saw's base plate.
See step 4 in your instructions:

exactly what Kregrep said....the screws are cone-tipped to bite into the saw base holding the guide in place

You just let those pointed screws clamp onto the plate.

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.
First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
